🔥 Educators and school leaders promoting meaningful #edtech initiatives: You know the early adopters aren’t the challenge. How do you move the middle?

Let’s make sure AI helps teachers stay creative—not automate education.

🚨 Teachers, STOP writing lesson plans like essays! 🛑
It’s not about format—it’s about function.
🎥 A lesson plan isn’t a checklist—it’s a blueprint for real learning.

What’s the worst lesson plan format you’ve been forced to use? Drop it in the comments.

✨ Use tech to spark collaboration, inquiry, creativity, and voice.
It’s not about the tool—it’s about the task.

School used to be about finding the right answer.
Today, it’s about asking the right questions.
Time to rethink what we’re actually offering students.

Do Nows weren’t built for curiosity—they were built for control.
But the best lessons don’t begin with control.
They begin with wonder.

The attention game has changed.
Are your lessons built to compete?

✅ No pecking order
✅ No “fall in line” culture
✅ Just a mission to make a difference—from Day 1.

When students are so worn down by rote tasks that they’d rather “just have a worksheet,” it’s a clear sign: school needs a cultural reset.

Throwing students into “groups” isn’t the same as true collaboration. @mrswilliams21c.bsky.social discusses agile project management as a hack for teachers to achieve group work with accountability and visibility.

Transformation in education isn’t about forcing change—it’s about allowing educators to experience success firsthand. When teachers see what works, they embrace new strategies.
